Hello,

This Zantedeschia is a hybrid of a few species (Z. elliottiana, Z. albomaculata, Z. rehmanii) - it is not an actual cross of these pure species, but one of hundreds lucky crosses among other cultivars.

It may be 'Vermeer' at the end of its blooming when the white part of the spathe turns green:

There are some other similar cultivars like 'Jody' with yellow spathe margins and violet interior, 'Picasso' with cream margins and certainly a few new ones every year.

Ph. cannifolium is an invalid name for Ph. martianum, but your plant looks rather like Ph. crassinervium - the midrib is too thick as for Ph. martianum.

Best,

Marek Argent
